forwarder that doesn't ask root servers

I believe bind has some root servers hardcoded inside and bind always
looks for root servers even if you give it a list of forwarders, I see
this in the firewall blocked connections.

So the question is quite simple: Is there anyway to disable this? I
mean, I just want bind to forward queries related to not-owned maps to a
list of forwarders as FW will drop all packages going to non-local nets.

Does any of you know how to accomplish this? 

Thanks in advance.
